Home on the range...

Can't say the skies aren't cloudy all day. Since arriving, limping mind you, to The Woodlands there's been considerable rain. We've settled down in our humble abode and have been plugging along with our jobs and WoWing...until last Friday.

My editor contacted me with the edits to my manuscript and so I feverishly worked throughout the weekend into Monday and finally completing my edits on Tuesday evening. My boss was sweet enough to give me a few days off to get it done (yes, she is the best!) and I sent the edits back to the editor.

I received the cover art for my book that same day and let me tell ya, I went giddy squealing like a little girl. I remember when I was writing the story that I could almost feel the book in my hands. To see the artist work, to read my name on the cover, and hear the publisher's happy reactions to my story...its so validating and amazing.

I'm proud of myself, because this wasn't an easy task. Writing is not easy, but it is so rewarding. This is my passion and for it to be appreciated by friends and readers is humbling.

So on to the next project. I am working on a proposal for another book in another series. My goal is to get that completed in the next day or so and submit by Friday. Whew. So much to do. So little time. lol
